What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

A blinding, dark golden beam of light shot into the sky and slammed into the dome of the All-Heavens Jar Shop.

The light swept back, instantly filling every corner of the hall.

A moment of deathly silence fell over the hall.

Immediately afterwards, the crowd erupted in chaos.

"Is the resort's first SS-rank item about to appear?!"

"My God! I used to secretly laugh at Li Shao, saying that all those jars he opened were just junk with blue sky and white clouds on them."

"So, can quantitative change really lead to qualitative change? They managed to create an SS-level rank by simply using the minimum required!"

"Won't that young master Li be utterly humiliated now?!"

Amidst the crowd, gasps and gasps of astonishment mingled together.

"I wonder what exactly Young Master Li found in that jar?"

"Who cares what it is! It's an SS-level item! Those are rare treasures we'll never see in our lifetime!"

Li Xin stood still in front of the counter.

He raised his hand to block the bright light, then squinted.

The expression on his face quickly changed from initial surprise and bewilderment.

The muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched, and the corners of his mouth uncontrollably pulled upwards until they split open completely.

"Hahahahaha!"

Li Xin abruptly pulled his hand back, tilted his head back, and let out a wild, unrestrained laugh.

Laughter pierced through the dark golden light and echoed throughout the hall.

He turned around, his chest puffed out, his silver-white cloak billowing behind him in an arrogant arc.

"Xiao Ran!"

Li Xin raised his right hand, pointing his index finger straight at Wei Xiaoran who was walking towards the door, and shouted loudly.

Shout at the top of your lungs.

"Take another good look!"

"Now, if you agree to my previous conditions, what I said still stands!"

These words caused another uproar among the onlookers in the hall.

"Wow! No wonder he's Young Master Li!"

"An SS-grade item! A priceless treasure, and you're just giving it away like that?"

"Young Master Li! If you like, I can change my name to Wei Xiaoran, okay? I know a lot of names. They're pretty much the same with the lights off."

……

Faced with the frenzy and flattery of those around him, Li Xin's smugness grew even stronger.

He stared intently at Wei Xiaoran, waiting for her to turn around and lower her proud head.

This is an SS-rank item!!

Back then, my grandfather secured his position as the head of the manor with just one bottle of S-grade Marrow Cleansing Elixir.

An SS-level opportunity is right in front of you, are you afraid that Wei Xiaoran will not be tempted?

However, at the back of the crowd, near the gate.

Wei Xiaoran stopped in his tracks.

She frowned slightly as she listened to the wild laughter behind her and the gasps of those around her.

He turned slightly to the side, looked back, and muttered something under his breath.

"Heaven has no eyes."

"you--!"

The smile on Li Xin's face instantly froze into ice, shattering into pieces.

He gritted his teeth, about to explode.

"Young Master Li, quickly take a look at what this is!"

"Maybe Miss Wei will change her mind once she finds out what it is?!"

Someone nearby offered suggestions.

"yes!"

Li Xin looked at his hands.

It is a square box, about the size of a basketball.

The box is painted with red and white vertical stripes, and the four corners are outlined with gold paint, giving it a festive look.

"What is it? Young Master Li, open it and take a look!!"

Among the onlookers, someone shouted impatiently.

"Please, Young Master Li, let us see this!"

"I'll only ever see an SS-level item once in my life, and this one box alone is enough for me to brag about for the rest of my life!"

Hearing the urging of those around him, Li Xin's heart began to beat faster.

"This is?"

Li Xin weighed the items in his hands, and his brows furrowed instantly.

The box felt incredibly light, as if it contained only air. He circulated his spiritual energy, attempting to probe the contents of the box.

The Yuan energy was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, not even causing a ripple. There wasn't a single fluctuation of Yuan energy on the box!

Li Xin turned the box over and examined it carefully.

On the right side of the box, he felt a slightly raised mechanism.

It was a round button, only the size of a thumb.

"No energy fluctuations?"

Li Xin stared at the box in his hand, somewhat hesitant.

"Young Master Li!"

The old man with the goatee, Qiu Chen, quickly stepped forward and explained obsequiously while rubbing his hands together.

"It is said that the items that can be found in the shopkeeper's All-Heavens Jar Shop are all sorts of strange and wonderful things."

"Although many items look strange and lack any elemental energy fluctuations, they are all incredibly powerful when used correctly! They are absolutely heaven-defying divine artifacts!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xin's brows relaxed and he nodded.

Right.

How could an SS-grade divine artifact be as vulgar as an ordinary treasure?

He understood the principle that divine things should remain hidden.

He supported the bottom of the box, raised his right index finger, and aimed it at the thumb-sized button.

Everyone in the hall held their breath and craned their necks.

Li Xin pressed down hard with his index finger.

"Click!"

A crisp click of a mechanism spring rang out.

"Bang!"

The top of the box suddenly popped open.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Several explosions rang out in succession, and colorful confetti and plastic ribbons sprayed out of the box like small firecrackers, scattering all over Li Xin's head and face.

Followed by.

"whisper!"

With a comical, strange noise, a palm-sized clown doll suddenly jumped out of the box.

The clown had an exaggerated red nose, a gaping, blood-red mouth, and his face was painted with pale paint. He wore a pointed hat with bells on his head.

A thick spring is attached to its feet.

The spring stretched to its limit and then began to shake violently back and forth and side to side.

"Chirp... chirp..."

The clown puppet bounced along with the springs, its exaggeratedly smiling face staring straight at Li Xin.

As the spring swayed, the bell on the clown's head rang crisply.

It looks incredibly silly.

"..."

The entire lobby of the All-Heavens Jar Shop fell into a deathly silence.

It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Hundreds of people stood with their necks craned and eyes wide open, staring blankly at the clown puppet in Li Xin's hand that was jumping around.

There was no oppressive aura from divine weapons, no exotic fragrance from top-grade elixirs, and no fluctuations in the laws of peerless martial arts.

There was only one red-nosed clown, amidst a flurry of colorful confetti, frantically nodding and shaking his head at Young Master Li of Haichuan Mansion.

"Chirp... chirp..."

What on earth is this thing?!

SS-grade item, and that's it?!

Li Xin held the box in both hands, dumbfounded.

Several red and green ribbons hung from his head, and his eyes were fixed on the clown who was less than a foot away from his nose.

The spring wobbled, and the clown's red nose almost poked his face.

Li Xin's face changed from white to red, then from red to purple, and finally turned ashen.

He suddenly raised his head, ripped off the ribbons from his head, his eyes blazing with fury, like an enraged lion, and roared wildly at the top of his lungs.

"Shopkeeper!!"

"Where's the shop owner?! Come out here!!"

Li Xin held the box up with both hands and shook it vigorously in mid-air, causing the clown doll to sway violently.

"Someone tell me, what on earth is this piece of junk?!"

"What's the use of this thing?!"

His roar echoed through the hall, making the glass display case vibrate.

"What are you shouting for?"

A lazy voice drifted over from the side door frame.

Everyone turned to look.

Xu Tianlin appeared at the door at some point.

He held a purple clay teapot in his left hand, and raised his right hand to casually scratch his cheek.

Yawning, Xu Tianlin slowly walked to the counter.

He glanced at the clown doll that was still bouncing in Li Xin's hand.

"Oh, this."

Xu Tianlin put his hand down, picked up the teapot, took a sip of tea from the spout, and smacked his lips.

"The Panic Box"

Xu Tianlin pointed at the clown and calmly described the item's attributes.

"Once activated, it can instill fear in alien races at or below the Flying Heaven Realm, causing them to panic and flee."

Duration: One minute.

Xu Tianlin offered a calm explanation.

"Hmm, it's a pretty good low-level crowd control item."

The hall fell silent once again.

Li Xin stared intently at Xu Tianlin with bloodshot eyes.

He opened his mouth, his voice sharp.

"An SS-grade item that can only control those in the Flying Realm???"

"Only one minute?!?"

Li Xin suddenly raised the box in his hand and slammed it hard on the counter with a loud "bang".

The clown doll was shaken violently.

"Are you kidding me?!"

Li Xin finally broke down.

He spent tens of millions of credits to activate dozens of junk white lights, finally unleashing a dark golden beam of light that shot into the sky.

And all you got was this piece of junk?!

Control the Flying Realm for one minute?

He has plenty of men under his command who can easily crush Flying Realm cultivators; what use is this kind of trash to him?

Anger surged within Li Xin's chest.

He looked down at the clown doll.

With that exaggerated red nose and gaping, blood-red mouth, he seemed to be hallucinating.

The clown's face twisted and changed in an instant, gradually transforming into his own likeness.

That clown was clearly mocking him for being a sucker! It was a joke!

"This is an SS-rank item??"

"Cough cough."

Xu Tianlin didn't even blink. He put down the purple clay teapot and cleared his throat.

"When did I say that what you got was an SS-grade item?"

Xu Tianlin raised an eyebrow and asked a question in return.

Li Xin was taken aback, then suddenly pointed to the dome above his head and loudly retorted.

"Everyone in the hall saw that burst of dark golden light!"

Although the surrounding onlookers were wary of Xu Tianlin's rules, they all nodded in agreement at this moment.

"Yes, shopkeeper, we definitely saw it!"

"That dark golden beam of light, there's no mistake!"

Xu Tianlin pursed his lips, stretched out his right hand, and waved it casually.

"The box you opened only contained a basic white light. It's just a D-grade item."

Xu Tianlin turned around, raised his arm, and pointed his index finger across the counter to the main door at the back of the hall.

"The white light coming out of the can you opened is too weak."

Xu Tianlin looked at the dumbfounded Li Xin and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.

"It collided exactly with the dark golden beam of light he unleashed."

"It was just covered up by someone else."

"The real SS-rank item is right there."

Everyone turned their heads sharply in the direction Xu Tianlin was pointing.
